Replying to: chrishallowell (Sep 15, 2008 12:40 pm) I have Friends discoutn from Nissan.. I am paying more for using discount than buying car without discount. How is that possible? Discount is on Dealer invoice. Can someone tell me what is the Dealer invoice for Nissan Sentra 2.0S AT in NJ.

They said they couldn't go 1 penny below that Employee discount because it was GM's rule. I don't believe that (Sounds too simple and easy); but either way, that discount was above or at invoice. That doesn't seem like a good deal to me.

Well - i ended up with a Sentra S with Conv package, Splash guards, CVT and floor mats for divide'n'hide. MSRP = 19020 First offer to me was $18,800 - $1000 cash back - $4000 for my trade-in. + 3.9% financing = 13,800 being financed I countered with $5500 trade-in $1000 cash back +$17,800 for the car .. total financed = $11,300. After several hours back and forth and after me leaving showroom to go and "give another dealer a chance to do this deal " they had already moved to within $550 of my target price. They called me just ten mins after i had left and asked me to come back in ... so we swung by there on our way back home and they offered $5500 trade in, $1000 cash back, $18000 for car = total financed $11,500. + 3.9% for 60 months. that was close enough for me .. they had moved in my direction by $2300 .. i felt it only fair that I should move by $200 to seal the deal. (I would have been prepared to finance $12000 if they had really pushed me .. so i was happy) I'm sure at that price they did make a buck or three ... but i felt like i got a decent deal too .. and at the end of the day - that's what negotiation is all about ... if both sides feel that they got a deal and both can walk away happy ... it is a win-win for everyone. Finance guy tried to push a $600 scotch-guard protection, a Gap insurance policy, a maintenance plan and an extended warranty as well as "life insurance" type policy which would pay off the car should anything happen to either of us ... that little lot would have taken our payments from $211 per month to $270 per month ... (and would have added an extra $3000 to the sales price) so we politely turned down everything he offered and we were back home with a new car within the hour. Had the car a couple of days now and am so far VERY happy.
